DID NOT STRIKE THE WHARF.

EDIToR BULLETIN Allow me to
correct a mistake in your issue OF
last evening, when you say that the
steamer Eva struck the wharf at
Waikiki, then crowded with people.
Now, she did not strike nor even
touch the wharf. But passing close
to the end, where the line was caught
and held in hand by two boys, and
several people jumped aboard. She
fortunately sheered off as she adj
vanced along its side. Otherwise it
would have been bad for the "Adver-
tiser's" struggling Mass of Human
ity" in less than 4 feet of water.
The fault was not in the lightness
of the wharf, but in its dangerous
construction. This vas feared by
several who returned again TO the
bank. Indeed it looked heavy and
substantial, which, no doubt, deceiv'
ed the people, ! observed its defect
in the morning and anticipating a
crowd and rush on returning, sug-
gested to interested parties, to have
line stretched across the head OF
the wharf, but on returning we
found it already crowded. Hence
our caution in avoiding the wharf.
Yours truly,
J, A. DOVER.

The MARSHAL'S PARTIALLY.

EDITOR BULLETIN 1t is stated
that Marshal Kaulukou threatened
to prosecute all the gentlemen at the
British Jubilee dinner for disturbing
quiet Of night. His attention should
be called TO little affair of which he
was silent spectator last Thursday
night. A party of Palace habitues
having loaded up rather heavily were
shut ont of the Hotel at half-past
eleven, and created an intolerable
nuisance by shouting, singing and
profanc swearing. Marshal Kaulukou
drove up Richard street in an ex-
press, alighted opposite the drunken
jewellers, and having taken in the
scene leisurely dismissed the express
and walked toward his home. If he
had done his duty he would have
placed every man under arrest, but
as the party consisted of gambling
and drinking friends of his master
no notice was taken OF the scandal
This is only one out Of many similar
cases that might be mentioned and
substantiated. In the general re.
formation the Marshaps department
should moi be forgotten,

Late FOREIGN News.

The Caibarien arrived from San
Francisco yesterday afternoon,
bringing papers to the 9th instant,
two days later than the latest dates
previously received. The following
news is CLEANED from files to hand:
UNITED STATES.
El Paso, June 3.-Kit johnson, q
notorious criminal who murdered
the City Marshal of Albuquerque,
New Mexico, and one of his depu-
ties some time since, and for whose
apprehension reward of 81 900
was offered, was arrested to-day by
City Marshal Tom White. He was
walking quietly along the street near
the Post Office, when he WAS pointed
out to the Marshal, who stepped out
in front of him with revolver and
covering him ordered him to throw
up his hands. He made no resist
ance and is now safe in the county
Jail, johnson has succeeded for
nine months in eluding the best
detective talent in the country.
Winsted (Conn.), June 3.-The
WOrla's big balloon left here to-day
on its way to st. Louis, where the
ascension is to be made next Satur-
day.
New York, June 3.-Rishop Pot
ter, of the Episcopal Church of New
York, has issued an address which
outlines the consummation of q pro-
ject which has for some time been
in contemplation--the building in
this city " cathedral which will
eclipse anN church edilice in the
United States;-so Bishop Potter
says.
1t will be bSoadly national and
popular in character and services,
and most noble and striking orna-
ment, architecturally, to the city.
The address was issued rather un-
expectedly Wednesday, and so
secret has the whole plan been kept
that it will come as a surprise to
most of the churchmen, even in this
diocese.
The new building will be called
the Cathedral of st. John the Di-
vine. Few details, except that it
must be built in some conspicuous
and fitting part of the city, have
been decided upon. The structure
will probably cover two ordinary
blocks, and will, of course, be many
years in building. The style will
be Gothic, but no design or plans
have been drawn.

sident and Postmaster General Villas

thing of the kind would have cost
them their billets.
Now, what is sauce for the goose
is ditto for the gander, and if the
king and his followers are to be al
lowed extra licence { l do not refer
to opium licence) on jubilee and
like occasions, such as sprces at the
boat house, surely British and other
foreign residents are equally entitled
to similar latitude on an event
such as Queen Victoria's Jubilee.
The treaty between Great Britain
and Hawaii asserts that subjects of
these countries shall enjoy the same
rights and privileges in the eye of
the law. Judging, however, by re.
cent events, it looks very much as
if there was one law for kings hula
dancers, and another for foreigners
allowing the former to hold q regu'
lar pandcmonium all night, ant
compelling the haole to "shut up
after 10 or | o'clock.
